The rules are somewhat imprecise, but basically any functional cookies do not need to have consent as it is implied by the user using the service. This includes thinks like the user-identifier to know who is logged in for example.

This sounds like authentication with extra steps? Why not just send a bearer token?

The choice for me was quite simple, paying once for the great Anki app, or monthly subscriptions for SuperMemo?

Since I abhor the subscription trend it made picking easy.

As someone who has no idea about ML, why is knowing how it was trained important?

I would guess to anticipate possible problems, but I don't really know.

The issue is usually less what species gets endangered or faces extinction, but the fact that this is not done for progress but for greed (be it humanity or corporations).

Destructively changing anything should be approached with extreme care, since you cannot un-extinct a species.

I'd illustrate it like what happens on Linux when you are approaching OOM situations. You can either kill other processes, not knowing what they did or if they were vital, or just stop doing what you were doing. And so far societies have usually decided that mines are not as important as raw materials at some point.

What do you mean by 'hard to please'? The joke about the compiler being some beast you need to sacrifice a goat to seems to put the blame on the wrong end of the computer imo.

Unless what you are doing is not fit for what guarantees Rust gives you, the compiler should just be a crutch in case you missed a step.

That was exactly my thought, and I do already see them in a similar light.
